Colour INKspiration 26 #CI26

What is Colour INKspiraton? – a Facebook based bi-monthly colour challenge.

Anyone with Facebook can join in.  You don’t need a blog and you don’t need to be a demonstrator.

I have joined in these challenges and love them as Colour challenges for me are actually a real challenge.

 Click here to join the Facebook page which now has over 1750 members and see what it’s all about.

Here’s some of the basic details about the challenge –

The Colour INKspiration Crew! consists of a team of talented Aussie and NZ Stampin’ Up! ® Demonstrators that create projects based on Pinterest inspired colour swatches.

Every second and fourth Wednesday of the month at 7 pm (AEDT), a new colour swatch will be uploaded to the Facebook Colour INKspiration Group and the Colour INKspiration Crew will get the ball rolling by providing inspiration for each challenge with a blog hop.

Then you have a 12 day period to upload your own creations using the colours provided.

If you have a blog, feel free to link back to it, but all entries will be via Facebook.  The design team will select 5 projects to be ‘design team picks’ and then the Facebook group will select an overall winner from this shortlist.

Another set of beautiful colours

I went back to the annual catalogue to see what hasn't been touched for a while and found my Watercolour Wings stampset. I did mix a little new product in with this card.

Firstly I took the Bermuda bay and a sponge brayer and coloured the top of the shimmery white paper, then the Emerald Envy and Tranquil Tide at the Bottom of the Card.

I cracked out the new Stamparatus to 3 step stamp the Butterfly in the same 3 colours.
The floral diecut is from the new Petals and More Thinlits along with the sentiment from Perennial Birthday. I have even popped some of the Bermuda bay shimmery ribbon from Sale-a-bration behind the butterfly.

• Stamps: Watercolour Wings & sentiment from Perennial Birthday
• Ink: Bermuda Bay, Emerald Envy, Tranquil Tide and Sahara Sand
